• In the event of an allergic reaction to the contents.

Please note you should not use Hopi EarCandles if you suffer from any of the following conditions:

• Perforation or lack of eardrum
• Ventilation tubes, auricular drains (paracentesis) or grommets
• Recent ear surgery
• Auricular cysts
• Acute mastoiditis

• Ear tumour
• Any condition of the ear for which you are currently receiving medical treatment, without consulting your prescribing doctor.

Where long-term conditions are being treated, the client sometimes experiences slight headaches and occasional popping shortly after the treatment.

However, most clients find the treatment relaxing and regularly describe a "slight relieved feeling" in the ears and head but also a relaxing and calming effect on the whole system.

What a typical Ear Candle Session entails

You are asked to lie comfortably and listen to relaxing music. The candle is then gently placed into the auditory canal, where it is lit. The candle is held it in a vertical position, keeping it steady and preventing any ash falling on to you. You will experience a pleasant crackling sound as the candle burns and a warm comfortable feeling. As the candle burns down, the residue ash (if it falls) will just turn to dust. The candle is then taken away while you lie there for a few moments before turning over to treat the other ear. Most clients find the whole experience very relaxing. Some fall asleep during treatment.

It is advised to have a second person to make sure that the ear candle is vertical during the session and to extinguish the candle safely at the end.

An alternative would be to sit on a chair with the candle held horizontally, however this may not be as relaxing.

Does it help to have a treatment before taking a flight?
